Maroon 5 sounds are forgettable
But frontman Levine manages to deliver a few decent guitar solos
By MELISSA RUGGIERI
Much like their records, Maroon 5’s live show is impressively polished, perfectly palatable, yet completely toothless.
At the John Paul Jones Arena last night — the seventh of a 28-date tour — studly frontman Adam Levine confirmed that he’s a manlier Justin Timberlake, blessed with a falsetto that is lovely, but also a tad grating after 85 minutes.
There might have been four other guys behind him, but from the opening “If I Never See Your Face Again” to the slick soul-pop of the radio-friendly “Makes Me Wonder,” this was, undoubtedly, the Levine Show.
While his frequent strutting down two catwalks spaced to form the legs of a capital “M” drew an instant memory of “Zoolander’s” “blue steel” pose — furthered by Levine’s sharp cheekbones and the taut triceps peeking out fro

This is a big day (Sunday Sept 30th, 2007) This "Family Day"at Foxfield Race Track (about a mile from my home) in Western Albemarle is an event not to be missed!There is of course the Steeple Jump Races of these fine horses. This is the main draw of the event but there is a lot more going on. Big hats, proper attire and even some fancy tailgating! If you read my blog, you know that my wife and I walk everyday in our area. It is not uncommon for us to hear a bugle and then the dogs run through the woods followed by the majestic horses with their riders in dress! There is also (one of the kids and mine favorites) the Jack Russell Terrier RaceIf you have never seen one, it is amazing!Jack Russell Terrier Races are almost as popular as horse racing. The dogs race on a 150 foot straight course with several hurdles to leap over! A lure (rabbit tail) is attached to a piece of string which entices the dogs to run full speed down the course.

Charlottesville home under 199K???OK, now the correction has hit us in Charlottesville and it seems we are much closer to reality in terms of price. Of course this is a personal opinion!I watch every new home the comes on the market every morning in my area. This keeps me really up to date on our overall Real Estate condition in and around Charlottesville Virginia.This weekend I saw 2 listing that were "homes" under 200K. Not condos or town homes.... This appears to be closer to where are low end homes should be in our area.

WHY CHARLOTTESVILLE?Charlottesville Virginia is located just east of the Blue Ridge mountains in central Virginia. With incredible mountain views, about 45 minutes to skiing in Wintergreen and just a few hours to the eastern seaboard. We are located where Thomas Jefferson decided to build his home, Monticello, a must see when touring Charlottesville. The University of Virginia, founded in 1819 by Jefferson is in the heart of Charlottesville. Ex-presidents, Madison and Monroe also made their homes nearby. The city of Charlottesville has a population of approximately 40 thousand which is why we have the feel of a small town. However, we also have the amenities of a big city. We have theaters, art museums and even big name shows that come to Charlottesville. Our downtown mall is a walking brick lined mall with shops, ice skating and an outdoor theater for weekly events! Many visitors enjoy the wineries and top off their visit with a breath-taking hot air balloon ride! Come visit Charlotte
